Looks like fun! Were those things in the last few pictures required to access that spot?

how much climbing did it take on your part to get up there? From the looks of the one guy, it was pretty cold up at 14K !

It was a blast being up there.

It was 18Deg. wind chill at the top.
Took a little bit of a walk from the parking lot to get to the top, but it's only about 500 yds away., but uphill.

Here's a few more pics from the day too.

That is freaking awesome you guys!

I just took a week off from work and highly considered driving over and up there, but after I realized it's 20 hours each way, I decided not to.

You guys are lucky!

Now that's getting high before you crawl...

Sweet; thanks for sharing. Did you call Guinness? That's gotta be some kind of crawling record.




Did those brushless Goats stick around to give you a run for your money?
